Yesterday was Thanksgiving here in the USA. Every home was doing the same thing throughout the United States and its Territories : families gathering together to give thanks for what we have. It's so wonderful, Thanksgiving, because it requires no belief system. It offers each and every citizen a chance to say a simple thank you for whatever has come my way. For my family I roasted a turkey, made sweet potatoes and white mashed potatoes, stuffing, and a huge pool of gravy. I also made apricot and poppy seed kolache. Now I am ready for Christmas Eve when our immediate family, 3 people, will enjoy roast duck, knedliky, zeli, and kolache. Then on New Year's Day we will enjoy roast Goose, knedliky, zeli, and kolache. I know, I know... on New Year's Day do not cook/eat anything with wings. Well... Hope is a thing with feathers Holiday tip: If one follows each and every day of Advent, the stress of Christmas will be minimal. A blessed Advent and Yuletide to everyone that visits this special, most special web page. Cheers, Dan
